+# CoPilot Tools - Future Ideas
+
+## Multimodal Image Support for CoPilot
+
+**Problem:** CoPilot uses a vision-capable model but can't "see" workspace images. When a block generates an image and returns `workspace://abc123`, CoPilot can't evaluate it (e.g., checking blog thumbnail quality).
+
+**Backend Solution:**
+When preparing messages for the LLM, detect `workspace://` image references and convert them to proper image content blocks:
+
+```python
+# Before sending to LLM, scan for workspace image references
+# and inject them as image content parts
+
+# Example message transformation:
+# FROM: {"role": "assistant", "content": "Generated image: workspace://abc123"}
+# TO:   {"role": "assistant", "content": [
+#         {"type": "text", "text": "Generated image: workspace://abc123"},
+#         {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:image/png;base64,..."}}
+#       ]}
+```
+
+**Where to implement:**
+- In the chat stream handler before calling the LLM
+- Or in a message preprocessing step
+- Need to fetch image from workspace, convert to base64, add as image content
+
+**Considerations:**
+- Only do this for image MIME types (image/png, image/jpeg, etc.)
+- May want a size limit (don't pass 10MB images)
+- Track which images were "shown" to the AI for frontend indicator
+- Cost implications - vision API calls are more expensive
+
+**Frontend Solution:**
+Show visual indicator on workspace files in chat:
+- If AI saw the image: normal display
+- If AI didn't see it: overlay icon saying "AI can't see this image"
+
+Requires response metadata indicating which `workspace://` refs were passed to the model.
+
+---
+
+## Output Post-Processing Layer for run_block
+
+**Problem:** Many blocks produce large outputs that:
+- Consume massive context (100KB base64 image = ~133KB tokens)
+- Can't fit in conversation
+- Break things and cause high LLM costs
+
+**Proposed Solution:** Instead of modifying individual blocks or `store_media_file()`, implement a centralized output processor in `run_block.py` that handles outputs before they're returned to CoPilot.
+
+**Benefits:**
+1. **Centralized** - one place to handle all output processing
+2. **Future-proof** - new blocks automatically get output processing
+3. **Keeps blocks pure** - they don't need to know about context constraints
+4. **Handles all large outputs** - not just images
+
+**Processing Rules:**
+- Detect base64 data URIs → save to workspace, return `workspace://` reference
+- Truncate very long strings (>N chars) with truncation note
+- Summarize large arrays/lists (e.g., "Array with 1000 items, first 5: [...]")
+- Handle nested large outputs in dicts recursively
+- Cap total output size
+
+**Implementation Location:** `run_block.py` after block execution, before returning `BlockOutputResponse`
+
+**Example:**
+```python
+def _process_outputs_for_context(
+    outputs: dict[str, list[Any]],
+    workspace_manager: WorkspaceManager,
+    max_string_length: int = 10000,
+    max_array_preview: int = 5,
+) -> dict[str, list[Any]]:
+    """Process block outputs to prevent context bloat."""
+    processed = {}
+    for name, values in outputs.items():
+        processed[name] = [_process_value(v, workspace_manager) for v in values]
+    return processed
+```
